Mommy & Me
For generations, women of colour have been told that their hair was a burden. The damage of this has had lasting negative consequences on our self-esteem. As the mothers, sisters and aunties of young girls with curly/kinky hair, it is our job to break this cycle and instil a sense of pride in our daughters that can be passed on for generations to come.
Mommy & Me Natural Hair Expo was an interactive workshop designed to help moms and women as a whole, establish a healthy and happy hair care routine with the little naturalistas, including: laying the foundation, products and tools, and shampoo and styling.
All attendees had the opportunity to browse and shop at the mini market for natural hair care products, ethnic hand crafted accessories, headwraps and clothing pieces for moms & tots.

Our First Post!
It’s All Natural”, a growing private group on Facebook, currently on 70 000 members. We are a team of 3, Maxine Arnold ( Group Founder and Events Director), Bryce Arnold (Group co-founder) and Jennifer Williams (group administrator) with a common goal of stomping out the misconceptions and divisions surrounding natural hair, and encouraging women of colour to love and embrace their God given crowns.
The motto of the group is “We are all here to grow!” The group provides a safe haven and hub of information to women of colour who are natural, transitioning to natural or who are thinking of returning to and embracing their natural hair. In our group, Its All Natural, Women have the freedom to post all their thoughts, progress, motivations, disappointments, concerns and celebrations on their natural hair journeys. The main focus of the group is natural hair care, so there are plenty exchanges of regimes, how to, what not to do, faux paus and just sharing good vibes with the aim of growing good healthy hair….naturally.
